    Take Me Back

    The way to your heart
    The way to your heart

    There are voices
    Like water
    Inside your heart
    Echo

    Take me back to the place
    Where I once belonged
    This could be any place
    A place where you and I could sing this song
    Take me back where I hear waterfalls
    Flowing

    Let me dive into the lake
    Where winter hides the snow (winter hides the snow)
    Then comes the summertime
    Fields of scarlet poppies grow
    Take me back where I see butterflies
    To-ing, fro-ing

    And the river flows
    I am never gonna take it back again
    And the river flows
    I am never gonna get it back again

    We don't know anything (don't know)
    Trapped in a world full of strangers (below)
    Please don't tell me anything
    I'd rather fall into you

    Let me sleep a little while
    Underneath the tree (there's a house, in the tree, by the lake)
    And dream of dragonflies
    Where the weary willow weeps for me
    Take me back where I see dandelions
    Blowing

    And the river flows
    I am never gonna take it back again

    And the river flows
    I am never gonna get it back again
    And the river flows
    I am never gonna take it back again

    And the river flows
    I am never gonna get it back again
    And the river flows
    I am never gonna take it back again (the river flows)

    We don't know anything (don't know)
    Trapped in a world full of strangers (below)
    Please don't tell me anything (I will say)
    I'd rather fall into you (I need you)
     

    I Love Saturday

    If they'd ever have told me
    That I'd find true love in every way
    Would I cry 'til tomorrow?
    Would I keep the non-believers away?

    Remember that late night last September
    When you held me in your arms so tight?
    I was feeling kind of low, my heart was blue
    I was empty 'til you came

    But oh what a
    Saturday night
    Things were going right
    As right as they'd ever been
    I know that you love me

    If they'd ever have told me
    That I'd find true love in every way
    Would I cry 'til tomorrow?
    Would I keep the non-believers away?

    Was I shy was I good with this foolish heart?
    Did I try to deny we would fall apart?

    Like a knight in shining armor you came over to save me
    What a bolt out of the blue
    Just one look into those eyes you had me fallen completely
    Head over heels in love with you

    But oh what a
    Saturday night
    Things were going right
    As right as they'd ever been
    I know that you love me

    If they'd ever have told me
    That I'd find true love in every way (find true love in every way)
    Would I cry 'til tomorrow? (would I cry 'til tomorrow?)
    Would I keep the non-believers away? (would I keep the non-believers away?)

    Was I shy was I good with this foolish heart? (was I shy? was I good?)
    Did I try to deny we would fall apart?

    And you saw me
    I was fallen
    Head over heels in love with you

    Saturday night
    Things were going right (I love Saturday)
    As right as they'd ever been
    I know that you love me

    If they'd ever have told me
    That I'd find true love in every way (find true love in every way)
    Would I cry 'til tomorrow? (would I cry 'til tomorrow?)
    Would I keep the non-believers away? (would I keep the non-believers away?)

    Was I shy, was I good with this foolish heart? (was I shy? was I good?)
    Did I try to deny we would fall

    If they'd ever have told me
    That I'd find true love in every way (find true love in every way)
    Would I cry 'til tomorrow? (would I cry 'til tomorrow?)
    Would I keep the non-believers away? (would I keep the non-believers away?)

    Was I shy, was I good with this foolish heart? (was I shy? was I good?)
    Did I try to deny we would fall
    Did I try to deny we would fall a
    Did I try to deny we would fall apart?
     

    Man In The Moon

    Stories from the deepest part
    Of my heart
    Delving under, cause to wonder
    Why am I falling apart?

    Scattered all around this topsy-turvy room
    Will I find the one who takes me there too soon?

    When the night is cold
    And you can't find anything
    And your will to survive's
    At an all-time low
    The spirit will fly and return
    With a new-found energy
    So keep it within and delight
    As your garden grows

    Whispered in some lonesome voice
    Too afraid to come out of the dark
    Sinking down into the covers
    Sleep to the beat of your heart

    Spinning all around this most peculiar room
    Will I find the one who takes me there too soon?

    Do be kind and civilized
    And don't descend into the dark abyss

    When the night is cold
    And you can't find anything (there's nothing there to be found)
    And your will to survive's
    At an all-time low (the moon is shining)
    The spirit will fly and return
    With a new-found energy (give your heart like a flower)
    So keep it within and delight
    As your garden grows (take me there)

    Do be kind and civilized
    And don't descend into the dark abyss

    When the night is cold
    And you can't find anything (there's nothing there to be found)
    And your will to survive's
    At an all-time low (the moon is shining)
    The spirit will fly and return
    With a new-found energy (give your heart like a flower)
    So keep it within and delight
    As your garden grows

    And the man up in the moon is shining
    Good fortune down on me
    And the man up in the moon is shining
    Sweet love
    Sweet love
     

    So The Story Goes

    I close my eyes to the sound in the sky and I see
    Birds in the trees and pastures green
    Nothing to do with the time or the place, I perceive
    The rush of the sea beneath my feet

    Such a lovely world
    Oh so magical
    Precious like a pearl
    Wrapped up in a shell
    Build your house of stone
    On a bed of sand
    Time and tide will rise
    Washing through your hands

    Hear your heart
    See the love
    Feel the soul lift up
    Hear your heart
    See the love
    Feel the soul lift up

    I lift my eyes to the sound in the sky and I hear it
    The voice on the breeze is so serene
    Nothing to do with the time or the place but I feel it
    Like dust on the moon beneath my feet

    Such a lovely world
    Oh so magical
    So the story goes
    Sing the madrigal
    What a lovely world
    Waxing lyrical
    See the lies unfold
    Hear the miracle

    Hear your heart
    See the love
    Feel the soul lift up
    Hear your heart
    See the love
    Feel the soul lift up

    So the story goes
    The lies and the miracle unfold

    (precious like a pearl wrapped in a shell)
    (build your house of stone on sand)

    (time and tide will rise and wash through your hands)
    (feel the soul lift up)

    (hear your heart, see the love)
    (feel your soul lift up)

    (i lift my eyes to the sound in the sky and i hear it)
    (a voice on the breeze is so serene)
     

    Run to The Sun

    Run to the sun

    For the first time in my life
    I'm up to run away
    It's not a choice that I made easily

    It's not that I'm ashamed
    To face the light of day
    It's really just a case of self-delusion

    And I know it ain't easy
    I know it ain't easy
    I know it ain't easy
    To see the truth

    So run the sun
    Here's one for the road (run to the sun)
    And may God's love go with you (and may God's love go with you)
    My tears are starting to show (I cry my tears)
    Whoa (who will be my hero?)

    That I should fall from grace
    Implies a twist of fate
    But I'm open to the joys and woes of passion

    And who shall take the wheel
    When it's time for overkill?
    There's no release when destiny is calling

    And I know it ain't easy (I know it ain't easy)
    I know it ain't easy (somebody reach me)
    I know it ain't easy (willing to teach me)
    To see the truth

    So run the sun
    Here's one for the road (run to the sun)
    And may God's love go with you (and may God's love go with you)
    My tears are starting to show (I cry my tears)
    Whoa (who will be my hero?)

    So run to the sun
    Here's one for the road (run to the sun)
    Though I'll never be lonely (you know my life is changing)
    Are you so high above me? (the days go by)

    Whoa (I wonder if I'll make it)

    Run to the sun
    Run to the sun
    Run to the sun

    And I know it ain't easy (I know it ain't easy)
    Somebody reach me (somebody reach me)
    Willing to teach me (willing to teach me)

    So run to the sun
    Here's one for the road (run to the sun)
    And may God's love go with you (and may God's love go with you)
    My tears are starting to show (I cry my tears)
    Whoa (who will be my hero?)

    I'll run to the sun
    Here's one for the road (run to the sun)
    Though I'll never be lonely (you know my life is changing)
    Are you so high above me? (the days go by)
    Whoa (I wonder if I'll make it)

    So run to the sun
    Here's one for the road (I'm runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin')
    And may God's love go with you (days go by)
    My tears are starting to show (I'm runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin')
    Whoa (I cry my tears)

    So run to the sun
    Here's one for the road (I'm runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin')
    Though I'll never be lonely (you know my life is changing)
    Are you so high above me? (the days go by)
    Whoa (I wonder if I'll make it)
     

    Always

    Open your eyes, I see
    Your eyes are open
    Wear no disguise for me
    Come into the open

    When it's cold outside
    Am I here in vain?
    Hold on to the night
    There will be no shame

    Always
    I wanna be with you
    And make-believe with you
    And live in harmony, harmony
    Oh love

    Always
    I wanna be with you
    And make-believe with you
    And live in harmony, harmony
    Oh love
    (always)

    Melting the ice for me
    Jump into the ocean
    Hold back the tide, I see
    Your love in motion

    When it's cold outside
    Am I here in vain?
    Hold on to the night
    There will be no shame

    Always
    I wanna be with you
    And make-believe with you (always)
    And live in harmony, harmony
    Oh love

    Always
    I wanna be with you (always)
    And make-believe with you (always)
    And live in harmony, harmony
    Oh love

    When it's cold outside
    Am I here in vain? (when it's cold in the night)
    Hold on to the night (where the new love grows)
    There will be no shame (no shame)

    Always
    I wanna be with you
    And make-believe with you
    And live in harmony, harmony (the leaves are falling down)
    Oh love

    Always
    I wanna be with you
    And make-believe with you
    And live in harmony, harmony
    Oh love
     

    All Through The Years

    Longing to sail on
    Through the night to the stars
    On until sunrise
    Where the moon hides her tears
    All through the years

    If I could see the world through someone else's eyes
    If I could see through you, would I cast you to one side?
    And if you gave it all, would I throw it all away
    Like the leaves in autumn winds?

    From the window in the kitchen
    To the fireside by the chair
    Sat in familiar surroundings
    Warm night air
    Under the bridges that were burning
    Before we reached the other side
    All the feelings I remember
    I cannot hide
    Not for want of trying

    And if you held me here, would the moment fade away
    Into obscurity like the night becomes the day?
    For all the broken promises, tell me where do I begin
    To throw my caution to the wind?

    From the window in the kitchen
    To the fireside by the chair
    Sat in familiar surroundings
    Warm night air
    Under the bridges that were burning
    Before we reached the other side
    All the feelings I remember
    I cannot hide
    Not for want of trying

    From the window in the kitchen

    Blues Away

    Can you see this prediliction
    Rushing through my head?
    Was a morning full of circumstance
    I was seeing red
    Put my blues away

    Navigation gone astray
    Went any way I could
    Haven't got the time of day
    Cannot see why I should
    Put my blues away

    I can hope
    I can pray
    Until you find me
    Someday

    Always had my reservations
    Who am I to blame?
    Walked in to the ring of fire
    Heart in a wall of flames
    Put my blues away

    My emotion running riot
    Through the neighborhood
    Screaming in the dead of night
    I wish to be understood
    Put my blues away

    I can hope
    I can pray (I can pray)
    Until you find me
    Someday ('til you find me someday)

    I can hope
    I can pray (I can pray)
    Until you find me
    Someday ('til you find me someday)
    Hey

    Navigation gone astray
    Went any way I could
    Haven't got the time of day
    Cannot see why I should
    Put my blues away

    I can hope
    I can pray (I can pray)
    Until you find me
    Someday ('til you find me someday)

    I can hope
    I can pray (I can pray)
    Until you find me
    Someday ('til you find me someday)
    Hey, hey

    Tell me where you are
    Hey little darlin'
    'Cause I ain't got twenty-twenty vision
    And I know you're here somewhere
    And it's nearly bedtime
    And I'm getting lonely

    Hey little darlin'
    Tell me where you are
    'Cause I ain't got twenty-twenty vision
    And I know you're here somewhere
    And it's nearly bedtime
    And I'm getting lonely
     

    Miracle

    It won't be easy, it won't be hard
    To find the reason, to find the rhyme
    To get your feet back on the ground
    To get your feet back on the ground

    We'll be goin' home
    Where the passion finds the perfect love
    Finds the perfect love
    Finds the perfect love

    We'll be goin' home
    Where the passion covers me with love
    Covers me with love
    Covers me with love

    It won't be out there, it can't be far
    Falls like a teardrop to the star
    A wall of silence all around
    A wall of silence all around

    We'll be goin' home
    Where the passion finds the perfect love
    Finds the perfect love
    Finds the perfect love

    We'll be goin' home
    Where the passion covers me with love
    Covers me with love
    Covers me with love

    The miracle of love
    Blinds me with your charms
    The miracle of love
    Take me in your arms

    We'll be goin' home
    Where the passion finds the perfect love
    Finds the perfect love
    Finds the perfect love

    We'll be goin' home
    Where the passion covers me with love
    Covers me with love
    Covers me with love
     

    Because You're So Sweet

    Because you're so sweet
    You lift my heart and I fall back again
    But I don't know
    Quite which way to turn

    The light in your eyes
    Touches the sky and I'm your man again
    And you hold me
    As close as close can be

    And many's the time
    That you've enchanted me
    Now I want you back
    Here in my lovin' arms for eternity

    You look and you smile
    Warm me inside 'cause you're so good to me
    A beauty
    Filled with the joys of spring

    No love is too pure
    To give to the world in her naivety
    Or too tender
    To caress with a simple kiss

    And many's the time
    That you've enchanted me
    Now I want you back (I want you back)
    Here in my lovin' arms for eternity

    And many's the time
    That you've enchanted me
    I want you back (I want you back)
    Back in my lovin' arms for eternity
